Turning super in Sonic 1 is achievable by collecting all seven Chaos Emeralds and then obtaining fifty Rings in any act, allowing Sonic to transform into his supercharged form, known as Super Sonic. This transformation grants Sonic increased speed, strength, and agility, making him nearly invincible, with the ability to fly and pass through certain obstacles unharmed, but at the cost of losing a ring whenever he is hit, and the transformation ends when all rings are lost.
